•There may be some degradation in image quality when digital zoom is used. If you zoom in on the subject while recording a movie, the zoom motion temporarily stops at the position where optical zoom is changed to digital zoom.

•If the inside of the camera becomes extremely hot when recording movies, the camera will automatically stop recording. The amount of time remaining until the camera stops recording (B10s) is displayed. After the camera stops recording, it turns itself off.
